Assignment 4: Architecture

Jay Thomason: Framed Shot

I took this photo through a metal sculpture in downtown SF. I used f/16.0, the smallest aperture on my 20mm lens because I wanted both the sculpture and the buildings behind it to be in focus. I also wanted to a slow shutter speed so that I could get motion blur on a car as it drove by.

Although I lost a little bit of sharpness due to diffraction, I adjusted the sharpness, contrast, and levels in Lightroom.
